Is the Diário changing for its 150 years?

The Diário de Notícias da Madeira newspaper and TSF-Madeira announce a restructuring weeks before completing 150 years, with the appointment of Rúben Santos as Editor-in-Chief, who also takes on the joint multimedia coordination of both outlets. Roberto Ferreira, João Filipe Pestana, and Ricardo Duarte Freitas leave executive management positions to become Senior Writers, in a reorganization that aims to flatten hierarchies, integrate operations between print, digital, and radio, and strengthen investigative work. However, the article criticizes that the changes are superficial, arguing that ownership by oligarchs and government subsidies limit editorial independence, and that real transformation would only be possible with a change in the political regime.
